Kentucky did at one time. Blanton Collier at Kentucky had future star coaches served as assistants. Don Shula, Chuck Knox, Howard Schnellenberger and Bill Arnsparger.
Have to say, that is a stout of a staff.

Ole Miss Spring 1978
Bill Parcells
Mike Holmgren
Romeo Cormell
Bill Belichick
All four got hired away prior to that fall.
ETA: Also on the staff was George Macintyre, who Mike Macintyre's father. Although I'm not sure how good of a coach he was, thought it was interesting.
ETA again: Was misinformed about Belichick. My apologies. However, the other three were all originally were with Steve Sloan and came from Texas Tech to Oxford, though only Cornell actually made it to the fall of '78.

They weren't in the SEC at the time, but I think Arkansas in the mid 60's had as good a staff as you'll ever see. Not to mention Jimmy Johnson was a player on the team at the time.

I would say the Saban Lsu staff because he had Dooley. Dooley is a Boss.

Not SEC, but a bad arse staff.
Miami Hurricanes (The U) had at one time under Jimmy Johnson.
Dave Campo
Tommy Tuberville
Dave Wannstedt
Butch Davis
And Randy Shannon was a player on the team, and Chuck Pagano became an assistant the next year.

Meyer at UF in 2008. Mullen and strong at OC and DC. Strong is on his way to a bcs bowl and Mullen has turned state around probably better than most would admit
